Air India Crash Probe Zeroes in on Software, Sensor Failures; 'Un-commanded' Fuel Cut Suspected

Air India Crash Report: The investigation into the June 12 Air India crash that killed 260 people is focusing on electrical and software glitches that may have caused the aircraft’s fuel switches to enter cut-off mode seconds after take-off. The probe is examining if a faulty Stabilizer Position Transducer or FADEC software triggered ‘un-commanded’ actions, leading to engine failure. Prior warning signs—including an unresolved electrical snag, repeated system alerts, and a cockpit exchange caught on recorder—paint a troubling picture of technical negligence.
